File Error:java.security.AccessControlException: access denied and ScriptException:java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong. I would like to get this sorted out or I'll have 15 frustrated students I can't help.
This is an applet security issue as mentioned in another thread.
Applets that are not signed can't access files on the harddrive. Since you're opening the file locally, the path is a file:// path, and the java security manager will throw an exception.
Options:
1) As mentioned by Miguel, set up a personal webserver.
Since you'll be dealing with 15 students, it's probably /not/
practical to do this on all of the machines. ;)
2) Also as mentioned by Miguel, stick everything in the same directory.
3) Stick the applet on a remote server that has ssh and a webserver
Students can work on the files via ssh, and still test.
Some students may not be comfortable with using a shell
4) Sign the jar file.
There's a bit of upfront overhead in creating your key
and signing the jar, but it gives you a lot of flexibility.There are many how-to's out there on self-signing an applet. Hope this helps,
Robert
Thanks in advance Todd
